Not long after passing through the shrine, everyone went up the mountain and took about two hours to reach halfway up the mountain.

Here, they saw a forest that had been artificially repaired. There seemed to be something behind the forest.

Just like the village, even in the mountains, the silence was almost eerie, not even a cicada chirping or a bird could be heard.

After clearing the woods and seeing a dense mass of blue-gray tombstones in front of her, Tang Yao couldn't help but get goosebumps all over her body.

"It seems that this is the ancestral grave of generations in Guxun Village. Good guy, if this is a ghost, we can't bear it." Zhao Sicheng said repeatedly.

His words aroused dissatisfaction from others. There were already enough people around the cemetery, but now that they heard what the other party said, Lin Yuanqi and Tang Yao even turned to him and said, "Please stop saying a few words."

The look in his eyes made even Ren Yao roll his eyes.

In Feng Shui theory, there is a lot of emphasis on the ghost house where a person lives after death. Good ghost house feng shui can benefit future generations, on the contrary, bad ghost house feng shui can harm the whole family and even future generations.

The ancestral tomb of Guxun Village is located on the east side of the mountainside. It is on a high terrain, with a wide open hall and ample lighting. It is surrounded by green shade, which is in line with the Feng Shui saying of "sitting west to east, a wealthy family."

In order to better protect the ancestral graveyards from descendants, most cemeteries are surrounded by pine, elm, willow and other trees. If the trees are tall, powerful, vigorous and dense, it means that the fortunes of future generations will also be blessed.

But now, all the vegetation around the cemetery has turned yellow, the trees are dead, the branches are broken, and the branches are dry, showing a picture of desolation and decay.

Although Ling Yun did not have deep attainments in Feng Shui, he also knew that the quality of the trees in the cemetery had a certain correlation with the good and bad luck of the descendants.

A dead tree is said to be a bad evil. If the tree dies, the person dies.

"I'm afraid this village has really suffered some kind of disaster... it's unknown..."

After listening to Ling Yun's words, Lin Yuanqi pushed up his sunglasses and while scanning the cemetery, he stopped at an old tree.

Strangely, instead of being affected in any way, this old tree has lush branches and leaves, which is in stark contrast to the other dead and decaying vegetation around it.

And soon, Lin Yuanqi noticed again that there was a raised grave half as high as a man under the tree.

The tomb was surrounded by blue-gray bricks. It looked normal from the front. But when everyone walked around to the back, they were surprised to find that behind the tomb under the old tree, there was a height of about 100 meters.

A fifty centimeter hole.

The entrance to the hole looks like it has been around for some time, and the bricks and soil around it have been smoothed away. Judging from the traces, it looks like something has dug it open.

There seemed to be some creature nearby. In addition to strange footprints on the ground, there were many bones and tattered clothes scattered among the nearby trees.

"Is he someone who was killed in the village?" Tang Yao asked subconsciously.

Su Li bent down, picked up a bone from the ground, and observed it carefully: "This is a tibia. You see, there are bite marks on it. But judging from the degree of decay of these bones, they are dead."

It has been at least more than ten years, and he is not the person who disappeared in the village a few days ago."

"I'm here to eat corpses? Could it be that all the graves nearby have been dug up by this curse spirit?"

Zhao Sicheng's guess was quickly verified.

After Lin Yuanqi used the Disintegration Touch to melt several nearby tombs, everyone discovered that there was a tunnel under each tomb.

The coffin buried underneath was completely destroyed, and the corpse inside was dragged away from the tunnel by the cursed spirit, dismembered and eaten, and then dumped near the lair.

"This village is so miserable. Not only the living people have disappeared, but the dead can't live in peace either..." Tang Yao murmured.

"No wonder this tree grows the best. It has been nourished by nutrients for many years." Lin Yuanqi thought thoughtfully.

"Shh, listen carefully..." At this moment, Shen Tinglan suddenly made a silent gesture and pointed at the dark hole ahead.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone suddenly noticed that a black shadow as fast as lightning jumped out of the hole and rushed towards where Zhao Sicheng was standing.

Ling Yun quickly grabbed his companion and moved him to an open space five meters away to avoid the blow.

Before Zhao Sicheng had time to say thank you, he took a closer look and saw that the black figure suddenly kicked off its legs and jumped up the tree the moment it fell to the ground.

At this moment, the monster was parked on the tree in a half-crouched posture, its green eyes exuding greed and ferocity.

Its face is covered with black manes, like some kind of dog; its throat keeps making strange "rurr" sounds, the skin on its body is like rubber, its limbs are strong, and its claws are extremely sharp and can easily pierce Human fragile skin.

After seeing everyone, the monster squatted on the tree, raised its neck, and let out a sharp and ear-piercing howl.

"This should be a ghoul."

Su Li quickly said: "According to legend, this kind of monster often wanders in graves, wilderness or places where someone has just died. They lie around day and night, plunder graveyards, feed on the flesh and blood of the dead or children, and also lure travelers there. Killing and devouring in the wasteland.”

"It doesn't matter if it's a hyena or a ghoul, just do it!"

Zhao Sicheng took out a Desert Eagle from his waist, aimed at the direction of the ghoul and fired two shots.

However, what surprised him was that the bullets could not cause any harm to the ghoul. Its skin was tough and thick and could completely resist bullet attacks. After Zhao Sicheng fired, the ghoul jumped up from the tree with a roar, Targeting Su Li and Tang Yao again.

However, the reaction of the two girls was not slow. When the ghoul flew into the air, the two of them had already dispersed and fled in other directions, without giving it a chance to make a surprise attack.

Lin Yuanqi concentrated his thoughts, gathered the venom in his palm into a pool of gel-like solid, and threw it towards the ghoul.

"Zi la -" The venom liquefied in mid-air, and the moment it came into contact with the monster's skin, bursts of white smoke suddenly appeared along with a burning smell.

The ghoul screamed, and then quickly moved behind a tomb, using cover to avoid other venom sprayed by Lin Yuanqi.

Ren Yao rushed forward quickly, raised his right arm and waved it violently, trying to suppress Lin Yuanqi at the moment when he had cornered the ghoul.

"boom!!!"

With a loud noise, countless smoke and dust suddenly rose from the broken tomb.

However, in the smoke and dust, a black shadow shot up like lightning and landed on another grave quickly and nimbly.

"You really get what you eat. This thing is simply smarter than a human. It can dodge our skills so smoothly..." Lin Yuanqi murmured, and cold sweat gradually broke out on his forehead.

"Sure enough, this is the thing that was hiding in the dark and watching everyone!" Zhao Sicheng spat: "It must have seen Ren Yao's method of dealing with Shadow Xiao, and it has been on guard against this trick for a long time."

Under the successive waves of attacks by Lin Yuanqi and Ren Yao, the ghoul no longer chose to actively attack, but always kept a distance of about ten meters from everyone, so that Ren Yao and Lin Yuanqi's skills could not be used at all.

Give full play to it.

"Everyone, be careful."

Su Li and Tang Yao turned their backs to their companions and were wary of looking in other directions: "As far as I know, hyena groups often live in a matriarchal society and live in groups and hunt in groups. In addition, there are so many skeletons scattered around, that is,

Said... there must be more than one ghoul around here."

"Yes, when that guy appeared just now, he made a seemingly meaningless scream in the tree. I think it must be sending a signal to other companions!"

As soon as Ling Yun finished speaking, a burst of movement suddenly came from the depths of the dense forest behind everyone.

Just as Su Li had guessed, in an instant, six black figures sprang out from the forest, forming an encirclement in an instant, surrounding Ling Yun and others.

"Oops!" When they noticed the movement behind them out of the corner of their eyes, Lin Yuanqi, Ren Yao and Zhao Sicheng all turned around and returned to defense. After seeing the silhouette of their companions, the ghoul directly in front took advantage of the flaw in everyone's defense point.

At that moment, he rushed out again.

"There are too many." Ren Yao had just crushed one to death, and then, another ghoul emerged from the jungle behind the body.

Soon, except for the two ghouls killed by Ren Yao and Lin Yuanqi, Ling Yun and his party were surrounded by the remaining six in a direction ten meters away with Ling Yun and his party as the center.
